The ship says
Πάσιν ημίν κατθανείν οφείλεται

It is obviously pretending to be a historical artifact but then it proudly says "QUARTZ", indicating there's probably just a cheap modern movement inside.
The waifu is nice though, I like the thigh clasp.
They are hard to separate but when you do, they both become half N and half S. No monopoles allowed!
Some of them use bismuth, which is as weakly radioactive as it gets, but why? It's still a heavy metal and might be poisonous if parts of it shed off.
This is GRUB’s final warning before you dig too deep in the OS list. Never hold ⬇️ for more than 45 minutes. If you do, make sure you have punch tape with a bootloader available or you'll have to manually enter machine code instructions to get your computer back up.

Really? The Hippocratic Oath originally included "I will not use the knife". A surgeon is very limited without a knife.

Laser printers more accurately "bake paper so that number powder sticks to it"
If you look at the collection, it is apparent that they often group unrelated clipart into one picture. Therefore, the four icons, the penguin, the bow and the "comic" panel are likely completely irrelevant to each other. Despite being bundled with DOS software, the monochrome pictures are likely best suited for the Mac's high-res monochrome screen, and many seem to have been made by Mac fans mocking PC users in comics like these. They would hot have known about Tux the Linux penguin back then so it's a generic penguin that does not represent Linux (but appears next to a robotic Mac in one picture??)
As for how the comic is supposed to be funny, I'd guess that the point is how difficult setting up a PC used to be(?) No idea if the thought bubble with the pirate is relevant but it is in a dithered area, meaning it's likely not meant to be cut and pasted elsewhere.
Now you can have fun while playing Modern Warfare 2
And the hat features a quote from Homer's Iliad:
